Beschreibung:
Anarchist and poet, Angelo Quattrocchi (1945–2009) reported from London, Paris and the US for Italian newspapers in the 1960s and 1970s and subsequently worked as a scriptwriter for the BBC, Channel 4, and Italian television. His books include The Beginning of the End: France, May 1968, What Happened, Why It Happened with Tom Nairn.
Angelo Quattrocchi, poet, anarchist and correspondent for the Italian newspaper AVANTI, was posted to Paris in May 1968. He witnessed the student revolt at Nanterre which spread to the Sorbonne and then to nine million striking factory workers. It was the closest the post-war west was to come to full-scale revolution. In an impassioned and unashamedly partisan voice, Quattrocchi describes these events.
